Not working with Python virtual environments

[toncho11]

I am on Windows 10. My project is in a virtual Python environment with certain packages installed. node-calls-python tries to find the real python as it is searching for the "libs" folder that contains *.lib files. The problems is that when it is installed into the real python then it does not know about any of the modules I have installed in my Python environment. node-calls-python should take into account if it is executed from virtual environment and install itself accordingly so that other modules in this environment are accessible.

Thank you.

Hi. Thank you for your quick response!

Now I do not get a missing package, but another error:

(eyelink) C:\Work\javascript\emool\src\testing\python_eyelink>node test_server.js
node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1327
  return process.dlopen(module, path.toNamespacedPath(filename));
                 ^

}

Node.js v20.6.1

So now it is similar to: https://github.com/hmenyus/node-calls-python/issues/57

I am on Windows 10, Python 3.8, nodejs 20.6.1 and in a virtual environment "eyelink".

not sure, but it looks like you may run 32 bit node, but the addon was built for 64bit or 64bit node with 32bit addon.
